Julianne Hough: No Sex Before Marriage

Dancing with the Stars's Julianne Hough says that she has been tempted by the excess of Hollywood, but is sticking to her vow to remain a virgin until marriage.

"I want to be with that special person," she tells CosmoGIRL! in excerpts posted on ET.online. "I think [the choice] to have sex before marriage is an individual one, but if you're just with one person, it's only for one good reason, and [waiting to have sex] will strengthen that relationship. I'm not trying to
preach consequences here, but I think when you say no, down the line it will be a better decision."

The 19-year-old dancer, paired in competition with DWTS champs Apolo Ono and Helio Castroneves, says the pressures surrounding dating within the entertainment
industry has been hard on her – so she's turned to her family for
support.

"My dad, whom I'm very close with, will text me, 'Are you doing the right
things, in the right place, at the right time?'" she says. "And it's usually
when I'm someplace I shouldn't be. So I'll call him and say, 'Thanks, I
needed to hear that.'"

As for meeting new people, Hough, who broke off her engagement last year,
says she's had some trouble fitting in with Hollywood.

"I tried to go out and mingle with people in the industry and date people, but I felt I was
different than most of them," she says. "I don't drink, smoke or do drugs,
so those things immediately separate me. It's all very enticing, though."
